There have been some great deer killed in the county the last couple of years. There are plenty of small acreage hunters but it hasn't hurt numbers at my place at all. Matter of fact I could kill 5 to 6 does the last few years and still have good numbers.
I am in the woods a lot in this county, I am sure there are poachers just like every other county, but I haven't encountered the problem presented on this thread.

Wish I didn't have problems. While they've improved, I still see sign of folks on my place all the time, even having pictures of 5 different folks on game cams last year. Some we just trespassers but 3 were holding guns as they walked by. Unfortunately the pictures were at night and low quality. Makes me carry a handgun at the ready to and from the stand which pretty much sucks.

I am sure your situation sucks. Proximity to town, all the houses on the edge of your property, rv park, and nobody lives on the property. I am sure it makes it real hard to keep a handle on the situation.

I am sure it makes it real hard to keep a handle on the situation. Didn't know you where dealing with all that Kenny!, Another reason to bust that big 6 if you see it again. I'd put up "no Trespassing" signs (new ones) all over the exterior fence for the more honest folks. If that doesn't work, maybe Buddie up with GW Penny, maybe she would like to utilize your place on a swap deal. If I was closer to your place, I'd try to keep an eye on it for you.

I don't have much at my feeders either but I have seen some good quality out in the field already this year. Same thing with my place in Archer County.

I'm about 3 miles North of Wise County between Sunset and Bowie. Haven't started cameras but have seen very few deer and not a lot of tracks.
Without a sense of urgency, nothing ever happens.

I recently took a nontypical buck in Wise Co. B&C 152 6/8. He was the 3rd best buck I saw while hunting. Yes it was low fenced. I love Wise Co, TX hunting.

I've seen one deer, ever, that would go over 150 and that was 8 years ago. Only saw him once. There are some giant deer in the SE part of the county as you get close to Eagle Mountain. I've heard of some big bucks near the lake and read about the 190+ shot near the golf course two years ago, but a lifetime of hunting and 15+ years of running cameras and I've never seen anything remotely close.

I've barely played at all. Hoping to play this weekend though. Upside is, my periodic play has slowly let my handicap come up to where I have fun when I do play. Gonna hurt some folks in these fall tournaments.

I went to check my camera and fill the feeder this last weekend. I was so excited to get home and see the pics, because the landowner said a huge buck has been at the feeder. I get home and the camera took "0" zero pictures. I am not sure what happened. Batteries, bad card, messed up camera? i dont know. I have used the card and camera before. The batteries are not dead. I hope i can pull the card Saturday morning as i get into the blind.
